I don't see why this is such a big problem, as long as you don't keep
changing the name. I had never heard of JOOConverter, so I don't imagine
that it's really too late to create a new name. You could keep the old
JOOConverter page for, say, 6 months, and put a link saying
"JOOConverter has been replaced by xyz...".

In the long term, I don't think you want to include a reference to
OpenOffice.org in the product name. I think you want to include a
reference to OpenDocument instead. The sooner you start that process the
better.

Cheers,
Daniel.
